Publisher's Synopsis
We are in a decisive decade that demands more inspired and informed practitioners who can use positive futures to rebalance the present. With this objective, and to help reverse the megatrends of economic disparity, social injustice, and climate change, the Institute for the Future (IFTF) and the Design Department of the Politecnico di Milano came together to prototype an approach to prepare all practitioners who seek to leverage the future to infuse our present with more impact and agency. Guided by global experts and inspired by a growing network of future-makers, the authors share essential insights from this emerging landscape, offering thought-provoking theory, innovative experiments, real-world experiences, and practitioner stories.
